     24  * \brief C API: DateFormat
     25  *
     26  * <h2> Date Format C API</h2>
     27  *
     28  * Date Format C API  consists of functions that convert dates and
     29  * times from their internal representations to textual form and back again in a
     30  * language-independent manner. Converting from the internal representation (milliseconds
     31  * since midnight, January 1, 1970) to text is known as "formatting," and converting
     32  * from text to millis is known as "parsing."  We currently define only one concrete
     33  * structure UDateFormat, which can handle pretty much all normal
     34  * date formatting and parsing actions.
     35  * <P>
     36  * Date Format helps you to format and parse dates for any locale. Your code can
     37  * be completely independent of the locale conventions for months, days of the
     38  * week, or even the calendar format: lunar vs. solar.
     39  * <P>
     40  * To format a date for the current Locale with default time and date style,
     41  * use one of the static factory methods:
     42  * <pre>
     43  * \code
     44  *  UErrorCode status = U_ZERO_ERROR;
     45  *  UChar *myString;
     46  *  int32_t myStrlen = 0;
     47  *  UDateFormat* dfmt = udat_open(UDAT_DEFAULT, UDAT_DEFAULT, NULL, NULL, -1, NULL, -1, &status);
     48  *  myStrlen = udat_format(dfmt, myDate, NULL, myStrlen, NULL, &status);
     49  *  if (status==U_BUFFER_OVERFLOW_ERROR){
     50  *      status=U_ZERO_ERROR;
     51  *      myString=(UChar*)malloc(sizeof(UChar) * (myStrlen+1) );
     52  *      udat_format(dfmt, myDate, myString, myStrlen+1, NULL, &status);
     53  *  }
     54  * \endcode
     55  * </pre>
     56  * If you are formatting multiple numbers, it is more efficient to get the
     57  * format and use it multiple times so that the system doesn't have to fetch the
     58  * information about the local language and country conventions multiple times.
     59  * <pre>
     60  * \code
     61  *  UErrorCode status = U_ZERO_ERROR;
     62  *  int32_t i, myStrlen = 0;
     63  *  UChar* myString;
     64  *  char buffer[1024];
     65  *  UDate myDateArr[] = { 0.0, 100000000.0, 2000000000.0 }; // test values
     66  *  UDateFormat* df = udat_open(UDAT_DEFAULT, UDAT_DEFAULT, NULL, NULL, -1, NULL, 0, &status);
     67  *  for (i = 0; i < 3; i++) {
     68  *      myStrlen = udat_format(df, myDateArr[i], NULL, myStrlen, NULL, &status);
     69  *      if(status == U_BUFFER_OVERFLOW_ERROR){
     70  *          status = U_ZERO_ERROR;
     71  *          myString = (UChar*)malloc(sizeof(UChar) * (myStrlen+1) );
     72  *          udat_format(df, myDateArr[i], myString, myStrlen+1, NULL, &status);
     73  *          printf("%s\n", u_austrcpy(buffer, myString) );
     74  *          free(myString);
     75  *      }
     76  *  }
     77  * \endcode
     78  * </pre>
     79  * To get specific fields of a date, you can use UFieldPosition to
     80  * get specific fields.
     81  * <pre>
     82  * \code
     83  *  UErrorCode status = U_ZERO_ERROR;
     84  *  UFieldPosition pos;
     85  *  UChar *myString;
     86  *  int32_t myStrlen = 0;
     87  *  char buffer[1024];
     88  *
     89  *  pos.field = 1;  // Same as the DateFormat::EField enum
     90  *  UDateFormat* dfmt = udat_open(UDAT_DEFAULT, UDAT_DEFAULT, NULL, -1, NULL, 0, &status);
     91  *  myStrlen = udat_format(dfmt, myDate, NULL, myStrlen, &pos, &status);
     92  *  if (status==U_BUFFER_OVERFLOW_ERROR){
     93  *      status=U_ZERO_ERROR;
     94  *      myString=(UChar*)malloc(sizeof(UChar) * (myStrlen+1) );
     95  *      udat_format(dfmt, myDate, myString, myStrlen+1, &pos, &status);
     96  *  }
     97  *  printf("date format: %s\n", u_austrcpy(buffer, myString));
     98  *  buffer[pos.endIndex] = 0;   // NULL terminate the string.
     99  *  printf("UFieldPosition position equals %s\n", &buffer[pos.beginIndex]);
    100  * \endcode
    101  * </pre>
    102  * To format a date for a different Locale, specify it in the call to
    103  * udat_open()
    104  * <pre>
    105  * \code
    106  *        UDateFormat* df = udat_open(UDAT_SHORT, UDAT_SHORT, "fr_FR", NULL, -1, NULL, 0, &status);
    107  * \endcode
    108  * </pre>
    109  * You can use a DateFormat API udat_parse() to parse.
    110  * <pre>
    111  * \code
    112  *  UErrorCode status = U_ZERO_ERROR;
    113  *  int32_t parsepos=0;
    114  *  UDate myDate = udat_parse(df, myString, u_strlen(myString), &parsepos, &status);
    115  * \endcode
    116  * </pre>
    117  *  You can pass in different options for the arguments for date and time style
    118  *  to control the length of the result; from SHORT to MEDIUM to LONG to FULL.
    119  *  The exact result depends on the locale, but generally:
    120  *  see UDateFormatStyle for more details
    121  * <ul type=round>
    122  *   <li>   UDAT_SHORT is completely numeric, such as 12/13/52 or 3:30pm
    123  *   <li>   UDAT_MEDIUM is longer, such as Jan 12, 1952
    124  *   <li>   UDAT_LONG is longer, such as January 12, 1952 or 3:30:32pm
    125  *   <li>   UDAT_FULL is pretty completely specified, such as
    126  *          Tuesday, April 12, 1952 AD or 3:30:42pm PST.
    127  * </ul>
    128  * You can also set the time zone on the format if you wish.
    129  * <P>
    130  * You can also use forms of the parse and format methods with Parse Position and
    131  * UFieldPosition to allow you to
    132  * <ul type=round>
    133  *   <li>   Progressively parse through pieces of a string.
    134  *   <li>   Align any particular field, or find out where it is for selection
    135  *          on the screen.
    136  * </ul>
    137  * <p><strong>Date and Time Patterns:</strong></p>
    138  *
    139  * <p>Date and time formats are specified by <em>date and time pattern</em> strings.
    140  * Within date and time pattern strings, all unquoted ASCII letters [A-Za-z] are reserved
    141  * as pattern letters representing calendar fields. <code>UDateFormat</code> supports
    142  * the date and time formatting algorithm and pattern letters defined by
    143  * <a href="http://www.unicode.org/reports/tr35/tr35-dates.html#Date_Field_Symbol_Table">UTS#35
    144  * Unicode Locale Data Markup Language (LDML)</a> and further documented for ICU in the
    145  * <a href="https://sites.google.com/site/icuprojectuserguide/formatparse/datetime?pli=1#TOC-Date-Field-Symbol-Table">ICU
